The study provides a comprehensive behavioral dataset of Drosophila melanogaster, categorized by genetic background, sex, and social context (isolated or in groups). Beyond enabling detailed analyses ...
Behavioral genetics is a field of scientific research that examines genetic and environmental contributions to individual differences in behavior. Behavioral genetics aims to answer the fundamental ...

Studying how all this genetic material works, and especially how genes influence human behavior, is an enormously complicated undertaking – one that's being made easier by the emergence of massive ...
Following my May 2022 post about Elinor Karlsson’s Science article on the genetic survey of dogs through the Darwin’s Ark project, and its conclusion that a dog’s breed does not predict its behavior, ...
The ready availability of genetic testing has created a contradictory set of challenges. (Disclosure/reminder: I’m Chief Medical Officer of DNAnexus, a genetic data management company.) On the one ...
Although sedentary behavior may be an evolutionarily selected trait, it is still important to try to be physically active, says a new study. Researchers have shown for the first time that genetic ...
An ongoing question of concern to researchers interested in dog behavior is just how much of it is coded in their DNA. According to the findings of a research team headed by Evan McLean of the ...
Valerie Knopik, the Ben and Maxine Miller Professor of Human Development and Family Science and head of the Department of Human Development and Family Science at Purdue University is the new president ...
The behavior of sperm cells is due, in part, to the individual DNA make-up of these cells, rather than only to the genetics of males, finds a team of scientists. Its results, which provide a new ...
